Answer to Question 2

In some cases, a problem can be solved by applying a step-by-step set of rules. For example, to calculate the average of a group of numbers, you add the numbers together and then divide by the number of numbers. This is called an algorithm. Not all problems have algorithms, but when available they guarantee a correct solution. A heuristic is a mental shortcut, or rule of thumb, to solve a problem. Heuristics do not always guarantee a solution, but they can be fairly quick to use. In the backward- working heuristic, you start with a possible solution and work backward. In the
means-end heuristic, the current situation is compared with the goal, and procedures are developed to reduce the distance. Another heuristic is creating subgoals, in which a problem is broken down into smaller, more manageable problems. Heuristics, however, can also get in the way of making decisions, as in the case of the availability and representativeness heuristics.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
